---

Acts of Congress are promulgated which can be signed into law by a president under the Constitution. Those acts are codified as the law of the land in the US Code.

The FBI’s mandate is established in Title 28 of the United States Code (U.S. Code), Section 533, which authorizes the Attorney General to “appoint officials to detect... crimes against the United States.” Other federal statutes give the FBI the authority and responsibility to investigate specific crimes.

Very good question.. The Federal Police would be a good clearing house of Info, maybe..
BUT TRUMPING LOCAL OR STATE POLICE... is unconstitutional..
